ABOUT
The full saga in one breathtaking box!
Once upon a time, the subjects of fairy tales - princesses, witches, talking animals, and more - lived far away in a fabled magical realm. But when a savage creature known only as the Adversary conquered their home, the characters of folklore were forced to flee a more mundane world. Disguised among the normal citizens of 21st-century New York City, these magical beings have created their own secret society within an exclusive luxury apartment building called Fabletown.
Two decades ago, writer Bill Willingham and a team of talented artists led by Mark Buckingham launched an epic that would run for 13 years and more than 150 issues, spawning multiple spinoff series. Now, Fables: The 20th Anniversary Box Set brings the full original sereis together for the first time. This beautiful, lidded box set contains four softcover compendium volumes collecting Fables #1-150, Fables: The Lost Castle, Fables: 1,001 Nights of Snowfall, Fables: Werewolves of the Heartland, ""A Wolf in the Fold,"" Jack of Fables #33-35, and The Literals #1-3.

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS
Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.
In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.
The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
